First year Ph.D. student Mehmet Ozkan at MALab presented our recent work entitled A Predictive Control Design with Speed Previewing Information for Vehicle Fuel Efficiency Improvement during the 2020 American Control Conference. This marks the first student paper from MALab since established in August, 2019.
Our recent proposal has been funded by Alternate Energy Research Initiative from College of Engineering. This project focuses on improving the energy efficiency and reducing emissions of the automotive and transportation systems through modeling, control, and optimization of ground vehicles powered by traditional fossil fuel, battery, and combinations of other alternative energy sources.
First year Ph.D. student Mehmet Ozkan at MALab has been accepted into Leadership And Mentorship Program (LAMP), Community of Scholars at Texas Tech University. This $600 scholarship from Dean of the Whitacre College of Engineering aims to support graduate student to practice the skills of teaching and instructing individual students.
Mehmet joined MALab in August, 2019. His research includes Connected and Autonomous Vehicle and Drivers Modelling and Analysis.
